Doesn't list the item as OEM... but claims it was via message.
Not OEM. Poor fitment. Cracked already and had imperfections.
Doesn't line up with the flash, pushes up against the speaker and camera. No bueno.
This is the follow up from a previous post that was floating around.

Cool story bro, I have been buying parts from ebay for almost 10 years & never had an issue.
Anyone that says one thing PM and another on the add is suspect and should not have been given business. Period.
Maybe the shopper should do more research 1st next time.
There is a company in China that goes by the name "OEM".
So the eBay sellers often use that MFG to sell products, pretending to be true "OEM" products.
Very confusing and eBay should put a halt to this practice.
Really needs to be a craigslist type of system where users can "flag" this or other types of auctions.

I hit my 10 year anniversary couple months back and it was never an issue for myself until recently. Way too many things from China. I've learned to just not buy anything from China anymore. The thing is... the Chinese manufacturers will have a warehouse in the US and ship it all from there. Then they claim to be state side. Bummer.

where'd u get that metal case? you've got hardware problems, u can sell that below P10k(more or les 200USD). i got mine off ebay, software was very in tact, hardware was ok but the screen had a very obvious scratch. got it for 10k.
I payed £90 for my XDA2s, which seems to be in about the same condition apart from the camera works, and anyhow, i wouldn't think a non working camera tis that big a deal on these things, it isnt amazing anyhow

thanks for the info guys.
The question is quite simple. Many people claim their batteries are original when they aren't. The fact that they cost 9 USD when, in Brazil, they cost over 100 BRL also make me wonder (mainly because USD BRL conversion is 1 - 1.8)
it's hard to tell if you shop online.
But if you can actually get your hands on it, there are couple things you can do.
The easiest way to identify is rip open the sticker on the battery. ( it's wrapped around the battery, so even if you rip it open, you still can wrap it back )
There should be carving like in the picture below.

}
But there are a new type of identical copy right now, that has the same carving as the picture above.... if you run into those.... see if the batter wrapper ( the one u rip open ) build quality is good and good luck....
One more thing, the the original battery weights 49g, and most the fake ones weight around 45g.
If you are buying on ebay, there is really nothing you can do until you get the actual item. And to be honest, if the seller do selling original battery on ebay for a cheap discount price, he is probably loosing some money there. I would find a more reliable source if I want to buy stock stuff.
That was a very useful response, thank you. Would you happen to know any worldwide deliveres worthy of trust? And what would be a reasonable price for the original battery?
not that I know of :x i usually either just suck it up and buy a cheap one that I obviously know it's some pirated stuff, or just dish out the cash and order from samsung. At least I can sleep better that way knowing what I am getting exactly...
The problem is Sammy still does't sell anything for the Note in Brazil.
all the battery is fake in china

Bom dia!

It's been one of my favorite sites to visit to see the different type of accessories available for my previous iPhones, ipads, Samsung phones and tablets. And a month in and the number of different accessories they have is amazing with new battery covers and bumpers now available. Also replacement screens ... at a price..
www.tvc-mall.com
Prices are so cheap you can choose multiple accessories to try out.
I've brought 3 covers so far and they have been great. Note I also brought the 2300 mah battery but hasn't been performing as well but it could be because of 1st charge but hey its only $2.35 and performing at 90% of the original battery. I'm thinking of getting the carbon fiber back cover just to be different.
Avast says that site is a no no. Geeked out as soon as the page started to load. Pass.
It sounds sketchy, just reading the OP aha.
Thanks for the heads up!
I want OEM batteries no poo poo generic for me

My AVG didn't have any issues with it.
But then I don't use the Internet portion of AVG.
Website "says" it's Norton protected but who really knows.

their shipping cost is erm........
That's it. Prices of products are good but shipping costs?
Better have a look on http://www.dealextreme.com. Shipping costs = 0,0 EUR
My first testorder was one single USB Jig for about 1,26 EUR including postage and it arrived .
My second last order with about 8 parts took about 3 month with 4 partial deliveries to complete but in the end all parts found their way to my home . The first partial delivery was a wrong article. The correct one was resent and I could keep the wrong article for nothing. Contact was good.
The last order was shipped very fast and all parts at once but its still on its way. To germany it takes about 2 - 3 weeks.

Samsung Mobile USA posted on its Facebook that it's sending a coupon for 50% off accessories.
Here's the Facebook status:

My phone is registered but what is Owner's Hub? I don't see an app for it on the Play store or anywhere on my phone.

It's linked to Facebook, but it didn't like my IMEI. Too bad, the coupon would have been nice.
I hate how everything these days is linked to facebook and twitter.
Guess I miss out on this deal. Don't want to make a stupid fb account.
i guess it's only for US gs3. entered my canadian imei, didn't work. thanks for the post tho.
if anyone got the code and wouldn't mind sharing that'd be awesome!
It's not worth it. Have you seen the "accessories" on their site? There's 12 things for the S3.
It's pretty funny what I did the other day and I had to share.... I used the coupon code for an accessory and I added a "Development Verizon S3" and it took half off of the phone too and it even let me checkout and I got a confirmation e-mail and everything! I ordered (2) of the 32gb models and it was almost $700 with tax... I should have just tried to get one and maybe it might have slipped by the radar but unfortunately they caught on and cancelled my order... LMAO I knew that was gonna happen but I HAD to try.... Maybe one of you should try to just order a phone with one accessory and see if it goes thru?? YMMV crazy that it would even let the order go through though.... Like I said, I had to try!! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
i'll be holding onto my coupon until the last eligible day, hoping that the wireless charger gets released.
Great info
Thanks
EVERY accessory I click on only has a link to a different seller. How do I buy it on their site? I like how they make like 7 different color flip covers.

Model mc05 eBay.
Thank you.
What brand?
Wireless charger.
Unfortunately, not a brand... Just a description.
Did you contact the seller?

No... They don't know anything anyway...
Seller buy, and resell. Do you think they play with their toys?

How can you know if you don't ask? They might be able to point you to the Manufacturer's website for more information.
They certainly know where they buy from.
"Playing with their toys" is different from "knowing what you sell". In retail, I may not have "played" with everything I sold, but I knew enough about them to provide customer service, and knew where to get answers when I didn't have the information at hand.
You gave them your money - make them responsible for the follow up.
According to this newegg product listing, the manufacturer is MC-Power and thier website is http://www.mc-power.cn. Might be a manual on there, but good luck unless you know chinese. Also, their support email is listed as [email protected]
On a side note, how hard is it for people to look up this info themselves? I googled "mc-05 wireless charger" and the newegg page was the second result...
I've contacted the seller and manufacturer on OPs behalf and will post the response.
(can't read Chinese myself)
Interested in seeing what happens....
